My goal is to compose two hip/hop based instrumentals for stress reduction for teens (ages 15-18) and publish them on a public platform. I will then assess the impact of my music in reducing stress in listeners.
My global context is IDENTITY AND RELATIONSHIPS. Strand: MENTAL HEALTH. I felt that this would be the most applicable for my project as my goal aims to reduce the mental stress of students/ teenagers. I came to this conclusion after analysing all global contexts in relation to my goal. Analyzing the development of ATL skills were very important to my project as it let me evaluate whether I am executing my project to my fullest potential and whether I am developing as an individual and learner through the process of creating my project. I have developed a plethora of thinking, self-management, research, communication and social skills. Thus, I have developed as an IB learner. Through this project I believe I also became an Inquirer. I have always been inquisitive by nature but through this project I have developed even more as an Inquirer as I allowed my curiosity to guide me through a structured form of independent learning as I acquired knowledge and skills for my product. I also think that this inquisitive spirit will reside in me as I try to understand and learn more throughout my life.
